Second and Third-Year Rotations

In the late winter/early spring of the first year, residents choose a track for their second and third years.  Tracks choices are inpatient/hospitalist, outpatient, combo inpatient/outpatient, or OB. Selecting a track directs the rotations towards the resident’s goals for practice after graduation.

A full Wisconsin medical license is required before advancing to the third year.  Sitting for the board certifying exam (either through ABFM for allopaths or AOBFP for osteopaths) in third year is a requirement for graduation.
